"It was so satisfying, so satisfying. I haven't enjoyed killing so much in a long time."

The deputy battalion commander Zhang Bao was covered in blood, and his uniform was soaked with wet blood, as if it had been fished out of a pool of blood.

Although his uniform was also scratched with several bloody cuts, they were only superficial injuries, and the blood on his body was all from the enemy.

More than 10,000 Black Cavalry were ambushed, and they encountered a brutal siege in the chaos. Zhang Bao, the fierce general, also killed more than 20 Black Cavalry light cavalry alone.

When Zhang Bao was in high spirits, he suddenly saw Chen Ziang standing not far away surrounded by a crowd and staring at him.

Zhang Bao saw Chen Ziang's stern face, so he also restrained the smile on his face and led his men over.

"General!"

Zhang Bao saw Chen Ziang with a gloomy face. He didn't know what happened, but he stood up and saluted with his fist.

"Did you enjoy the killing?"

Chen Ziang asked coldly when he saw Zhang Bao, who was soaked in blood.

"Pain, pleasure......"

Zhang Bao glanced at the chief of staff Li Qiye next to him. Li Qiye sighed helplessly and turned his face away.

Zhang Bao was also confused. Didn't they just win the battle? Why is their boss so crazy?

""General, what's wrong with you? Did those bastards under my command make you angry? Tell me who it is, and I'll deal with them later." Zhang Bao saw Chen Ziang with a dark face and said.

Seeing Zhang Bao who still didn't understand what was going on, Chen Ziang's face became extremely ugly.

"What is the mission I gave you?"

Chen Ziang could no longer hold back his anger, and kicked Zhang Bao, causing him to stagger, and asked harshly.

Seeing Chen Ziang getting angry, Zhang Bao dared not breathe, and replied timidly:"Take people to block the east, and don't let a single Black Cavalry escape.""

"More than a thousand Black Cavalry soldiers ran away, where are your people?" Chen Ziang asked with some disappointment.

Zhang Bao was also surprised:"Ah? More than a thousand people ran away?"

"Damn it, Fatty Wei, Fatty Wei, I told you to guard the east, how did you do it? I'm going to peel off your skin!"

Zhang Bao also understood why Chen Ziang got angry and kicked him. It seemed that he had not completed the task. He looked around and shouted at the top of his voice.

"Sir, the thousand-man general has been killed, and we are the only ones left in our thousand-man team......."

At this time, a soldier with wounds all over his body spoke with a heavy heart.

Zhang Bao then realized that the soldier who spoke was the thousand-man team he left behind to block the east.

"Where are the rest of you?"

Zhang Bao's face turned extremely ugly when he saw the remaining more than a hundred wounded soldiers.

"Brothers, brothers are all dead. The Black Cavalry broke through desperately, and we couldn't stop them no matter how hard we tried."The soldier pointed to a place not far away and said with a choked voice.

Zhang Bao looked in the direction of the soldier's finger. On a battlefield with green smoke, the fence on the east side of the camp was filled with piles of corpses.

"I asked you to lead people to block the east, but you only left a thousand people. You killed them happily, but not only did you let many Black Cavalry escape, but these more than a thousand brothers also suffered heavy losses. What crime should you be punished for!"

Chen Ziang roared fiercely, making the eardrums of Zhang Bao and others buzz.

Zhang Bao was promoted by Chen Ziang, and he did not disappoint Chen Ziang's expectations. He was always the first in every battle and was very brave.

Now Zhang Bao was promoted to deputy battalion commander and became Chen Ziang's right-hand man, and was trusted by Chen Ziang.

Chen Ziang's task for Zhang Bao was to lead people to block the more open east side after completing the task of luring the enemy, and to intercept the Black Cavalry who were surrounded and prevent them from escaping. He wanted to annihilate the Black Cavalry.

But Zhang Bao drank a lot of wine at night, and when he saw other troops fighting, he couldn't help but join the battle with a large group of troops, so that the blockade troops in the east were weak.

The Black Cavalry rushed left and right but couldn't get out. Later, they found that there were fewer Qinghe troops in the east, so they concentrated their forces to attack.

Although the more than 1,000 Qinghe troops responsible for blocking the east fought to the death, facing the wave after wave of cavalry attacks, some of the Black Cavalry finally broke through and escaped.

""General, I was wrong."

Zhang Bao also realized his recklessness at this moment, which led to the failure of their encirclement and annihilation plan, and eventually more than a thousand black cavalry escaped. He bowed his head in shame.

"You have disappointed me so much. From now on, I will remove you from your position as deputy battalion commander. You must reflect on yourself."

Seeing Zhang Bao bowing his head and admitting his mistake, Chen Ziang also said with some regret.

"General, please forgive Brother Zhang for his hard work even though he has no merit."

No one expected Chen Ziang to be so angry that he directly removed Zhang Bao's position as deputy battalion commander. They also hurriedly persuaded him.

"Li Lang, let me tell you, as a military judge, you should enforce the law impartially, but Zhang Bao repeatedly violated military regulations and drank secretly, but you turned a blind eye, so that he has made a big mistake now, and now you want to plead for him. I think you don't want to be a military judge anymore, right?"

Chen Ziang saw Li Lang pleading and scolded him.

"If you don't enforce the law strictly, you will have your salary deducted for three months! To serve as a warning to others!"

Chen Ziang saw the deputy battalion commander Li Lang, whose face was pale, and punished him in public.

"I know I was wrong." Li Lang also lowered his head in shame.

When everyone saw that Li Lang was also reprimanded, they all shut their mouths and dared not say anything more.

"From now on, anyone who dares to disobey military orders and violate military law will not be forgiven!"

After Chen Ziang said this, he swung his hands and strode away.

Li Qiye and others looked at Zhang Bao who was dismissed and Li Lang who was scolded with sympathy, shook their heads helplessly, and followed Chen Ziang.

"Brother Li, I'm so sorry for getting you into trouble."

Zhang Bao felt embarrassed to see that Li Lang, the military judge, was also reprimanded because of his own affairs.

"Brother Zhang, you must be tired after fighting all night, go and have a rest first."

Li Lang couldn't help but sigh when he saw Zhang Bao, who was full of blood.

The last time Li Lang enforced the law impartially, he offended Wang Hu, so since then, he has turned a blind eye and didn't want to offend anyone again.

But he didn't expect that this time he would cause such a big mess, and he blamed himself.

As a military judge, Chen Ziang trusted him to be in charge of military law, but he was worried about offending people and not enforcing the law strictly.

Now that he was exposed by Chen Ziang in public, he felt very guilty and felt that he had failed Chen Ziang's trust.

"Sir, there are brothers fighting over the spoils.

When Li Lang was in a bad mood, a military policeman wearing a red armband hurried over.

"Who is so bold?" Li Lang asked with a dark face.

"They are from the 5th and 21st Battalions. It is difficult for us to control them."The military police said in embarrassment.

"Lead the way, I'm going to enforce military discipline today!" Li Lang said murderously.

"promise!"
